The country has witnessed high adoption of infant formula crafted with premium ingredients, including HMOs, mainly due to the increasing income level, modernization, and middle-class population. The government in China has started easing its stand on the one-child policy and is allowing couples to have two children. This is expected to increase the number of newborn infants, which will, in turn, boost the demand for HMOs.
The type 2' FL is gaining rapid popularity in the HMO market across the globe
HMOs are known to have Bifidus, a beneficial bacteria species also known as Bifidobacterium. 2'FL selectively grows in intestinal Bifidobacterium because of three different bifidobacterial categories, such as B. dentium, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and B. infantis. On account of their numerous health benefits and a wide array of applications, 2'FL-based HMOs have become popular over the past few years.
Various government agencies are granting their approval for their industrial and commercial use. For instance; in July 2021, according to Taiwan Food and Drug Administration, Taiwan authorized the usage of 2'FL Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMO) in infant formula, milk formula for children aged below seven years, food formula for kids aged below seven years, and growing-up formula. The allowed use of this formula is 1.2g/liter. The 2'FL segment is estimated to dominate the market in 2022, as a result of rigorous and ongoing research in the development of 2'FL-based HMOs by key players.
